T-12 Days (For Sophomores at least)

Hello Everyone,

I hope your midterms week is going well and that you still have time for the necessities (e.g., food, sleep and relaxing time). This is a tough time that comes around every quarter but as long as you tried your best, you should be proud of yourself! Although your grades are important, I would argue that your mental health is significantly more important.

Not to add to stress for sophomores, but don’t forget that IQP applications are due on October 5^th by 11:59pm. Be sure to check out the IGSD website for the schedule of site information sessions to learn more about the ones that you’re interested in. The CDC will not only critique the resumes you need to submit along with your application, but we will also help you prepare for your IQP interview. We’re co-sponsoring two workshops with the IGSD on interview skills on Oct 12^th and 28^th, both workshops are 5:00-6:30pm in SL 115. After attending the interview skills workshop, you can schedule a mock interview with a counselor as well (just mention that it’s for IQP in the notes). Information about all upcoming CDC events can be found at wpi.edu/+cdcevents . Good luck with your applications and I hope you get to travel to where you’ve always dreamed of!

So long, farewell!
